Cayenne. Lemon juice. Salt and pepper. 3 yolks of eggs, beaten light. 1 egg for glazingVeal Loaf. Mix half of the gravy and all the other ingredients, except the egg for glazing. Add the yolks of the eggs last. The mixture should be just firm enough to hold in shape when molded into a loaf. If it is too soft, add bread crumbs. Flour your hands and mold it into a loaf rather more than twice its breadth in length. If longer it will crack in dishing. Flour the outside well and place it in a ^greased pan large enough to permit of your handling the loaf without danger of dis- figuring it. Cover over and set it in the oven until smoking hot. Remove the cover and allow it to brown quickly. Draw it to the oven door and brush over with beaten egg. Shut the door and leave for 3 minutes, or until nicely brown. It will require in all about 1 hour in a moderate oven. If cooked in too hot an oven the loaf will crack. When done, transfer it by means of a cake-turner to a hot dish. Handle it very carefully. Serve it with the remaining Yi cup of brown gravy or with tomato sauce or mushroom sauce, (see recipes.) It is delicious served with salad. Miss von Destinon, Boast Leg of Veal.
